- John rang needing help to remove and then reinstall the harmonic balancer on the big block chevy truck after failing to install it properly using his harmonic balancer installer. So we removed it, to make sure there was no damage. I was surprised that we needed less than 3T to remove the balancer. The engine was in the truck, and we had plenty of room because the radiator was out to replace a damaged camshaft. I still get surprised how easy the Quick Change Puller does the job, when people break other installers and removers. I really thought we would need to bring out the big guns.....the 12T cylinder....I was ready:-)
White grease on the seal and snout makes things easier.
It may help in some instances, but when they are tight, I have found it makes little or no difference, as it just gets pushed off. What I find does help when I am doing lots at shows, etc, is to scratch the surface up a little with some scotchbright, which helps stop the galling. I've had this happen on the power steering pump pulley, and it doesn't end well. But, I did have it on and off several hundred times before it became an issue. By the way, on the power steering pump pulley, I am at about 3.5T (metric) pulling the pulleys off before I scratch them up a little, which will take me down maybe 10% at most.
Thats a nice pump! how much?
